Winner is – Auntie Gayle (yeah … I’ll bring your prize over).

Yikes this title dates me! ‘Back to the Future’ came out in the early 80’s and I’m still saying, “HELLO McFly!” I’m definitely going to have to stop that. BUT, hey I finally get to an internet cafe and I leave all my images (in camera) with Mr. MK who is on a long 10 km hike with Sam and Lizzy. Georgia’s feet are infected and sore, sore, sore. That leaves me @ home with the invalid. We couldn’t get to a dr today without ferry’s and a long drive, so I took pictures of her feet to a vet. HA … no one can acuse me of being over protective. Needless to say, problem solved.

We’re having a great time, beach combing, crabbing, hiking, eating, it’s a faboulous place. I had the best series of pictures to share. Next time, I guess.

Tomorrow we’re taking a zodiak boat excursion to some hot springs. They’re in the Gwaii Hanaas National Park (National Geographic named it the best park on earth!!). We were actually suposed to go yesterday, but a huge storm (20 foot waves), kept us on dry land. I am really hoping we see whales. We’ve delayed heading home an extra day to take this tour.

Will check in again soon.

I feel just like Georgia looks in this photo: (in her Zooni hat)

NO, NO, NO — not drunk and disoriented!

Just dazed and confused …

It was one of those nights, that turned into one of those days.

Sorry, for the 2nd weekend in a row, my hosting co. has tried to migrate to a new server (with no luck) and my site has been down most of that time. This weekend, I was down and I also lost the original ‘NEW Contest Starts Today – Two Free Slings from Pippalily!‘ post, which I have recreated below. Continue Reading

Just because…

What follows is one of my top ten most embarrassing moments!

Early 1990’s – Applebee’s Restaurant

I was on a date with a Dork. Just so you know it wasn’t the first date with ‘the Dork’ and it wasn’t the last. That last part probably doesn’t matter, but I’m telling you anyway.

(psst… don’t think I am mean calling him ‘the Dork’, he turned out to be much worse, but it a long, long story – just take my word for it, OK?)

‘The Dork’ and I were seated in a booth, across from each other. I am sure I’ve mentioned in previous posts that I have a serious (but not debilitating) diet cola addiction, so it shouldn’t come as any surprise, that I had a VERY large and icy Diet Coke in front of me. It’s also important that you know that the drink was really tall and the straw very long (remember those two details, ok?).

Just a sec… I’m going to run and grab a drink.

I am craving lobster!

** 10 minutes of silence ** fingers hovering over keyboard ** nothing!**

Is the title starting to make sense yet? My mind is blank … well, except for the LOBSTER.

I am thinking about taking up extreme-ironing –> I’ll get Mr. MK to try it out first, you know, so I don’t get hurt! It’s sort of a ‘kill two birds with one stone’ kind of sport –> get fit and get ready all in one go!

Which reminds me, I’ve been exhausted all week. I STILL haven’t recovered from my night out!

MommyKnows and Mr. MommyKnows (along with the 3 youngest WeKnowNothing hooligans) are thinking of taking MommyKnows on the Road. Just a short family trip, any suggestions? Where would you like to see us go?

Work is making me crazy! Anyone out there want a career in etail?
